Looking Glass Animal Rescue Saving lives and completing families. Without a rescue outlet, these animals would otherwise be euthanized due to their issues.

Looking Glass Animal Rescue (“LGAR”) is an award-winning nonprofit volunteer-based animal welfare organization dedicated to rescuing dogs from high-kill shelters, hoarding situations, puppy mills, animal fighting rings and more. While we welcome all animals in need, we specifically focus on animals that are often overlooked due to age, breed, special need or an illness or injury requiring immediat

e, often costly medical attention that shelters are unable to provide. Hundreds of animals are euthanized every year due to overpopulation, irresponsibility and sadly, cost. This is particularly true with animals who suffer medical ailments, many of which are treatable yet they are often deemed “unadoptable” and withheld from public view. These animals in particular suffer the worst fate because they sit in pain and fear with no hope of ever being given a second chance at life. Because of this, we have developed a special focus within our rescue to save as many of these animals that we can. Veterinary expenses alone can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on the severity of the condition which is often unknown at the time of pull. Yet, in spite of these costs, our mission for every animal we pull into our rescue is to provide the most advanced medical and pain management treatments possible in an effort to ensure the best possible outcomes for these previously neglected and broken animals. In addition to treating their acute medical needs, every dog rescued will be spayed/neutered, if they are not already, and vaccinated and microchipped as soon as possible in an effort to give them the best opportunity for a healthy, happy life. When people do decide to foster an animal or adopt from us, they should expect the animal will remain well and not pass disease to their resident pets. Lastly, for each animal that we place, we provide extensive education on how to transition the animal into their new life. Basics like crate training, housetraining, obedience training, and the best ways to introduce resident pets are integral for the success of the relationship. When necessary we will also engage professional trainers for those animals that need specific behavior modification in an effort to help our animals and their new family position themselves for success. Mental health is as important as physical health and we believe that every animal should be given the chance to lead a life free of fear and anxiety. Like psychologists, professional trainers are often the only ones equipped to transition an abused animal from the life that once "was" to the life that "could be". Our goal is to ensure that all of our animals become a cherished and welcomed member of their new family for the remainder of their lives. By working with a network of volunteer advocates, foster caregivers, local veterinarians, trainers and shelters LGAR is hoping to be able to rescue hundreds of animals every year. We also serve as a resource to our community by providing information on pet ownership, including resources for spay/neuter, positive behavior training, nutrition and veterinary care. We believe that no animal should be mistreated and are working towards the day when no companion animal is euthanized for lack of a home.

Happy Fourth of July from Henry Hippo!!!!From hiking, to swimming, to mud bogging🙄, to a much needed bath, Henry had a great first Fourth of July. Remember, you may like fireworks, but dogs don’t. This is one of the most prolific holidays of the year where dogs get lost, hit by cars, or impounded. Keep your dog at home. And like Henry, give them a bone. They’ll love you for it.😉

🎆 The 4th of July is a blast for most humans — but it can be a bit too ruff for our furry friends 🐾. Loud fireworks, crowds, and heat? No thanks, say the pets!

Here are some tips to keep your furbabies safe and happy:
🐶 Keep Them Indoors – Fireworks can freak them out and send them running. A cozy, quiet spot inside is best!

🛏 Create a Comfort Zone – Calming music, favorite toys, or a snug blanket can help ease anxiety.

🏷️ ID & Microchip Check – Just in case they do bolt, make sure their ID tags are up to date and they’re microchipped.

🏃🏽‍➡️ Go for a run or walk – Well before fireworks start popping, go for a run or walk. Tiring your pet out can help them relax a bit more (and maybe even sneak in a nap!).

🍔 Watch the Snacks – No BBQ goodies, chocolate, or booze for pets! Keep party food out of paw’s reach.

🎇 Skip the Fireworks – They’re pretty for us, but scary for pets. Leave pets at home if you go to a fireworks show.

With a little prep and a lot of love, your pets can have a safe and chill Independence Day too! ❤️🐾

🚨Urgent: Louie needs a special foster, ASAP! 🐾

Meet Louie, a 14-month-old pup who was returned to us. Adopted at just over 2 months old, Louie was deeply loved, but through no fault of his own, faced challenges that left him under-socialized and overwhelmed. His previous owner gave him their all, but sometimes adoptions are just not a good fit.

Right now, Louie is at our trusted boarding/training facility, but at a steep cost of $1,000 a month — a price our rescue simply cannot sustain. We refuse to give up on Louie; he’s full of potential and deserves a chance to shine. But we need YOUR help to make that happen!

We’re sending out a 911 call for a dedicated foster home!

Louie needs a child-free home with someone committed to providing structure, training, and stability. With time, patience, and love, Louie can become the incredible companion he’s meant to be. Money shouldn’t stand in the way of his future, and your support can make all the difference.

➡️ How You Can Help Louie:
🐾 Foster: Open your home to Louie and give him the training and socialization he needs. No kids, just commitment!
🐾 Donate: Every dollar helps cover his boarding costs while we search for the perfect foster. Visit www.lgarinc.org to contribute or become a monthly donor and sponsorship of his care.
🐾 Share: Spread Louie’s story far and wide to find his hero!

Louie is counting on us, and we’re counting on YOU. Let’s give this sweet boy the chance he deserves. Message us or email [email protected] to learn how you can help Louie today. Time is critical — act now! 🙏🏻

This isn't easy for me to write. Asking for help feels vulnerable, especially when we've worked so hard to stand on our own. But the animals we serve, and the one's still waiting for rescue, deserve every effort we can give.

We need your support, now more than ever, to help us keep fighting for animals in need!

🐾🧡BEFORE AND AFTER 🧡🐾:

Sparkle is a darling 6-month-old pup, likely a lab and black mouth cur mix, a sweet, shy, and loving young lady. She was dumped along with her sister, Dazzle, who, like so many others, was left to fend for themselves. Both were too frightened to be captured at first, but are now busy being fattened up, properly vetted, and ready for family life! 💕
